Synopsis

"A highly enjoyable mix of science and humor." —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Escape into the animal kingdom in this visually stunning and clever nonfiction book about animal behavior by Caldecott Honor-winning duo Steve Jenkins and Robin Page, now available in paperback.

In the latest eye-catching dive into the kingdom of Animalia, Steve Jenkins and Robin Page reveal the skills animals use to survive in the wild in an imaginative and humorous how-to format.

With step-by-step instructions, readers learn about specific behaviors; how to catch thousands of fish like a humpback whale or how to sew up a nest like a tailorbird. This fascinating and fun illustrated nonfiction melds science, art, biology, and the environment together in a detailed and well-researched book about animals who live and survive in our world today.

• A Funny Kids Book: Find out what happens when you try to battle a sheep, woo a ewe, and even swallow a pig (don’t worry, it takes practice!).
• STEM for Kids: Explore biology and engineering by learning how a beaver builds a dam, a spider spins a web, and a tailorbird sews its nest with its own beak.
• Step-by-Step Guides: Easy-to-follow, numbered instructions and hilarious illustrations make complex animal behaviors simple and fun to understand.
• Caldecott Honor-Winning Art: Dive into stunning, detailed paper-collage illustrations that bring the entire animal kingdom to life on the page.
